For those with download problems, when you get to the download page look on the right, you should see several mirrors from different states. Try another one if you don't mind. I'll upload a mirror to dev host shortly.

For everyone else, I'll answer when I get on my computer. Too much typing! :sly:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] koudies:
Just installed on my wife's phone. Awesome so far! Thanks.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] GenEwic:
Just wondering what is the Re-Verification noted in one of the issues in the OP for "Most who are not on a T-Mobile network have reported issues with the SIM card not being detected." I've been trying couple of the 4.3 leaks for t999 and t747 and keep getting the issue where it doesn't detect the sim card. I have an unlocked t747 from att and now switched over to tmobile.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jon.s.nelson:
Yes, I've been using wanam exposed (and some others) with no issues.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] anil2653:
In this take my example and I am using T-999 in India (presently on Leak2) and I never had any issue with network and always it will detect Network here. Where as many different places it is not able to find network.

So this is still not sure why it happens, only someone knowing network basics can explain better.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
If you're up for it, try flashing the MD5 root66 firmware and see if it still occurs. How old is the battery? Stock original?

on the first leak it seemed hit and miss. Some worked fine, others did not. I wouldn't call it a permanent solution...

have you guys managed to get it yet? I'll start an upload to dev-host and post the link when I wake up. Sorry for the trouble and the wait.

This was referring to an issue where some people could not get this to work on a different carrier such as Simple Mobile, some outside the US, and others.

Only way to know is to try it I'm afraid. I think it was SIM/account related, but can't be certain.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DatNizzle:
I lost root. Just an fyi.

Dirty flash over leak #1.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Mr. Clown:
Still no luck.

Anyone else having Goomanager not able to identify the device when trying to install TWRP? I get a notice that there is no recovery available for your device.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] sipher26:
twice full clean install and after 3 cold restart the phone apk keep on crashing badly anyone else seen this issue?

thanks
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Anthonol:
If yo dirty flash and having problems, try using Andromizer to do a ROM clean, especially to clean up dalvik.....
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Anthonol:
I keep getting this: Updating contacts list message when I try to use contacts and Phone app isn't that snappy as I remembered it to be..... Any ideas?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] kingston73:
I asked this in another thread, apparently the Goomanager team is updating servers or something and it isn't working right now for anybody. You can still flash TWRP using a zip file from TWRP's site.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] sjancura:
Thanks! Good to know.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] scifan:
I dirty flashed over MJ4 without any challenges...

Dunno
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] revwillie:
Are you certain? No offense, but I continue to see TWRP 2.5.0.0 alert me to a lost root....it typically happens when I flash 4way reboot mod.

However, when I go into terminal emulator and type "su", I get a root prompt immediately. <- IMO the best test.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] anil2653:
I am using rom manager and today to check I did a nandroid back up of this rom then flashed other rom and later restored my backup of this rom after wiping cache and formating system

I haven't faced any issues or I haven't lost any data

I am on latest touch recovery
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Dev-Host mirror added to OP for the Deodexed Rom. If you need one for the PureStock rom let me know. But I do suggest that for daily use, you use the deodexed, Knox free version.

For those of you reporting problems, most have been having no issues at all. For myself or anyone else to help, please let us know the following infromation.

Did you flash clean? (factory reset)

Did you flash any mods?

Are you using Xposed?

Did you restore any backups? If so how and what?

What firmware are you on?

To determine what firmware you are on, Install Terminal Emulator from the store, open and enter the following:

getprop ro.bootloader

For those having issues with the backups, I so far am seeing no consistency one way or another. It seems CWM is having the better track record here, but I have seen several reports of it failing as well. I am working on an alternative solution now. Once i have a chance to test and make sure it works ok, I will post it for everyone.

For now, just make sure you use the Import/Export for Contacts backups (I suggest always doing this anyway) and an app such as Titanium to backup your important data. Do your nandroid backup, but do not rely on it on its own for now.

Those of you who have successfully used CWM/TWRP, please let us know, but make sure you include what version you are using.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] kingston73:
So far is it only nandroid complete backups that people have been having issues with? Titanium is working fine?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] taco7712:
Any chance S-Voice can be removed in this ROM or is that impossible right now?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] scifan:
So...

When I run "getprop ro.bootloader" I get "T999UVDMD5"... but I'm currently running the MJ4 baseband, and MJC firmware...

*sigh*

What are the symptom's with a failed restore? are contacts just scrambled? or something else?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] IXChicharitoXI:
Has the messaging app been updated for 4.3? I need group text function similar to the AOSP messaging app.

I can't use 3rd party messaging apps like Handcent cause it interferes with Tablet Talk.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
as far as I know TiB is fine.

You can remove it yourself. This is full stock and will remain so. I may release a new Rom base on it, but we will see.

You are good to go.

MJC=this Rom

MJ4=modem

MD5=everything else (except kernel)

Failed restores usually have trouble booting.

Are you having issues with anything?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] razielpr:
I restored a backup of leak #1 and booted fine after factory reset then flashed this rom again and no issues with the backup I'm using TWRP 2.6.0 when I made the backup I changed the name to 4.3.test and it works good.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] anil2653:
I used Rom Manager 5.5.3.0

And touch recovery 6.0.4.3

And with Rom manager took backup successfully

Later restored it in recovery after clearing cache and formating system

Then to be safe side just reflashed insecure kernel

And everything is working no issues at all
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] SuperSmashedBro:
Any idea how to add toggles to this and add long press menu to kill?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jim45:
I would like to know the answer to this as well. Group messaging is probably one of the most important features from newer Samsung ROMs that I actually care about. Can someone running this ROM check the messaging app for a Group Messaging setting?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] popimp315:
It works

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] nsxalwayz:
am i supposed to flash a new kernel with this rom, or is it already included?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] amandadam:
Included.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dominicag2000:
This is a really impressive ROM, its by far the snappiest touchwiz I've experienced, better then 4.2.2 on the GS4. I'd go as far as to say the best ROM I've tried on this device. Been waiting for this since I first got my GS3 and now I'm about to switch to the Nexus 5, bad timing I guess.

I was able to download Google Wallet from the Play Store, has anyone tested it? why is it working 4.3? I didn't do anything to my buildprop.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] amandadam:
Recovery Tools app can install TWRP also.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] philow:
Version 2 of Wallet works on most all devices now. Our issue is Tap to Pay not working. I have tried all the fixes for 4.1.2 TW but the lib files do not work on 4.3. I think how they got it working on TW before was the grabbed the NFC libs from the Sprint GS3. I have not seen a 4.3 TW leak here on XDA yet for Sprint. If anyone has a leak I would love to pull it apart and see if we can make Tap to Pay work.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] chui84:
Good Rom?

is this one good enough for a daily driver?:confused:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dieselford:
I have noticed on both J4 and JC radios that at random I suddenly can not make calls. It will say call ended and never actually connect or ring. When used with a 4.1.2 room it says not allowed by sim. On 4.3 I do not get the message about the sim but as stated, the calls won't go through. I have only been able to regain phone service by reboot. Not quite sure what it is. Has anyone else noticed this issue? I'm in the Tampa, FL area. Don't know if it's location related or not.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] scifan:
Was contemplating testing... of course without sure knowledge that I can revert, perhaps I shouldn't test.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] popimp315:
This happened to me as well and it used to happen on 4.1.2 Roms as well. **** was really annoying. I'm glad I'm not the only one. Hey doc do you plan on doing a debloated version of his or should we just run the slim by sarahnai

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Negativezeroxxxx:
Should I be coming from a 4.1.2 base for this ROM? Currently running 4.3 aosp
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] nsxalwayz:
anyone else notice that when you turn on the screen, either by the power button or home button, after the phone has been sitting for a while, there is a noticeable delay until the screen is actually on. The delay is about 2 to 3 seconds by my count. However, if you turn it on and off, the screen turns on nearly instantaneous. Same goes with opening the Gallery. First time opening it is very slow, but much faster afterwards.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Sincitybronze:
Yes, the same is happening to me
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Eddy63:
Same happens to me on this rom. Never have this on 4.1.2
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] SuperSmashedBro:
Doesn't this have to do with your phone having to wake up from deep sleep? It turns on faster when you turn it off and then on immediately because your phone never went into deep sleep. I could be wrong
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] nsxalwayz:
Possibly, but i do not recall it doing that when i was using the two other TW 4.3 roms, but i could be wrong. There is a delay even if i let it sit just for a few minutes
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] neoobs:
I just tried to download the PureStock version from each of the mirrors and all of them are coming back corrupted. I tried on two different computers and from my mobile and all have the same outcome. Not sure why, but can we get a mirror made or something?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] chui84:
I had the same issue!!!!

i downloaded the deodexed one twice myself as well,just flashed it right now waiting for first bootup and :good:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Planning to.look into it, but not sure right now.

Well tbh, imo, without a doubt.

Why confused?

are you guys with T-Mobile, or another carrier?

If time allows yes.I'll release something.

why could you not revert? Are you referring to restoring your current setup? If so check that roms thread for any nandroid issues.

preferably, yes.

if I had to guess, probably a sleep mode and may help a lot with battery. Is it really that bad?? I'll try to watch for it but haven't noticed anything yet...

I'll start uploading to dev-host now. Sorry, no idea what's been with afh the last few days...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dieselford:
Yes Doc, I am a tmo customer. I have only had the problem with the 4.3 radios myself. I am on a tmo s3 as well. Nothing out of the ordinary here. The radios work fine. Just happens at random. About once a day I will try to make a call and end up having to do a reboot.

I was using the new radio on 4.1.2 rooms as well. Had the same issue. Except that it would say "not allowed by sim". If I reverted to the md5 radio, I don't have the problem. I do not think md5 will work with 4.3 though. Or so it's been said repeatedly. I haven't even bothered to try after all the reports of no data.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Well, it obviously seems to be an issue with the modems on your device. What firmware are you on as your base?

In Terminal Emulator, enter

getprop ro.bootloader

Tell me what it returns.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jon.s.nelson:
You could xposed installer (a separate app that let's you apply all sorts of mods) and then install a mod called "wanam xposed". That lets you theme and modify rom in many ways and includes an option for long press back to kill.

If you want to customize your toggles (AOSP style) the ONLY way I have found is to download an app called Mappz settings. You can create custom toggles like on CM10.1.2. _ which you would pull down from the top right corner of the screen.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] :
Absolutely! :)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] revwillie:
I have noticed that _sometimes_ if I wake my phone, there is a bit of a delay. I think that was happening on Wicked 10 for some people too. It may have something to do with coming out of deep sleep or it could be the type of unlock you use: swipe or other or light or ripple effect. I was thinking I had too many lock screen widgets, but removing some didn't seem to make a difference. Of course right now, it's waking with no delay at all.

I just saw this update come up and I was about to let it update:

SuperSU v1.69 but then I read:

What's New

NOTE: If you just upgraded to Android 4.3, you need to manually re-root!

I will do the upgrade later today if noone else does it first. I just have to get through morning work stuff.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tp2215:
Just updated the app and binary, I have no idea what that warning is about but it seems to work fine. I am wondering if this will also permanently fix all the root issues on 4.3 that people were having. Yes, I still have root after the update and everything is still working.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] notufatjesus:
I lost root once. I had a nandroid from 4.2 and I gained root back by flashing my old hyper drive Rom. Just fyi

Think I lost it after the install was complete in recovery.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] chui84:
Thanks.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] cokewins:
I started having the same problem after upgrading to Leak #1 with J4 and it still happens with Leak #2 and JC. I'm on Tmobile in the PHX area and installed the deodexed rom versions.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Thanks for the heads up! I will include in future builds. Though, unless 1.65 has been causing you problems, you probably won't notice much of anything by updating. Probably not necessary.

About the phone wake delay, can you install Terminal Emulator and enter this:

getprop ro.bootloader

Did you update via the Play Store, or did you flash the zip you get from following Chainfire's links?

I only had a similar thing happen once, but it was when I had tried the AT&T leak prior to releasing. One reboot and I never saw it again..... All I can think of is it has something to do with the modem communicating with the older system.

Can you get the Terminal Emulator and also enter this:

getprop ro.bootloader

Thanks!

Also FYI,

MIRROR posted for PureStock Rom!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] revwillie:
I just installed superSU from the play store myself and did 'normal' binary update and it seems to be OK.

my bootloader is T999UVDLJC ... doesn't Terminal Emulator come with your deodexed build? Or was that leftover from my dirty flash over Leak #1 debloated?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] cokewins:
My bootloader is also T999UVDLJC like the guy above. I have never flashed the AT&T build and I have rebooted several times since updating.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Thanks.

Terminal Emulator is not included, so it must've been left over. It's possible that dirty flashing may be contributing to the delayed wake up. You are on the same firmware as I am but I am not able to replicate it.

Did you clean or dirty flash? Restore any backups?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] cokewins:
I installed Leak #1 with a clean flash, then dirty flashed Leak #2 over that. I have restored backups for some apps via Titanium Backup, but no nandroids since moving to the leaks.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] revwillie:
Yeah, same story for me. However, that delayed wake isn't happening currently. It catches me by surprise occasionally.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] wcterp:
Noob question here. Of course, I've been flashing ROMs since I had my MT3G, but I wanted to double-check before I flashed this. I'm coming from CM10.2M1, so I'm going to do a full wipe before flashing this ROM. In fact, I figure it's time to completely format both my internal and external storage. Will I have root when I install this (the deodexed version)? Or will I need to root my phone again? I know most of you have been posting that you still have root after flashing this, but it seems like all of you were flashing over the last TW ROM, and not from a completely clean phone.

Edit -- I think I answered my own question. I should have read a little closer where it says to flash root66 first if you're coming from a non-TW ROM. That gives you root. Then this leak theoretically lets you keep it.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] cokewins:
I don't think I've noticed the delayed wake issue, but I've had the failed call issue at least once per day
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jonk26.2:

I don't know if it's a small bug but when I restart my phone from the power button option, my phone will hang on s3 boot screen. I gotta pull batt then it'll boot. Clean install, no 4 boot mod. Anyone else seen this?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] razielpr:
Samsung is holding the the updates for the Note 2 and GS3 due to users reporting problems with the phone freezing and some apps not working properly they will correct these issues and then release the updates.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Are you restoring any System data? If so, this can cause issues. May or may not be the case for any given problem, but it is something to be aware of.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
I suggest flashing the root66 firmware to ensure that you arent trying to run this new 4.3 rom on ICS or older JB firmware.

99% of every rom you find on xda will already be rooted.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Not that I am aware of. First Ive heard of it anyway. Instead of pulling the battery, if it freezes again, try just holding power for about 10 secs or so. Does it happen every time you restart?

International S3 is getting updated already. Where did you hear about that?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] razielpr:

I saw a little bug I don't know is the Rom or the gmail app. When I touch an email running the app to compose a new email it says

Unfortunately Android system has stop. But dont close any app.

About the calls/radio issue it happened to me a couple of times, I just turn on/off airplane mode. It happened to me with both radios.

Btw Im using 4 way reboot and will be trying tethering and volume hack later this night will report about that later
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dieselford:
Doc,

I have root 66 flashed md5 a few times going back and forth from aosp and 4.1.2 TW Roms. So my bootloader would be md5. The ROM doesn't change the firmware that I am aware of. I switched back to Dandroid for now being that work calls are important. I will probably do an Odin back to md5 and start over this weekend.

It's just weird that it only happens on the new radios. You would think that if the modem was an issue, it would happen on all radios. Unfortunately I will have to wait for the weekend to test further. I haven't had any issues really since switching to the s3 from my OG EVO. Most problems are solved with a little reading and the elusive search feature. Thanks for your help Doc! I will try to log it or something when I have time.

Sound distortion when headphone/aux is pluged in

This ROM is AMAZING....I love this rom. Thee only time I have problem is when i put on headphone or aux for car. the vocal gets really low and the music is loud. sounds like your in a huge empty hall. i tried playing with the setting, but no luck. This only happens when I plug aux or headphones. Any idea anyone?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Erikdrakon:
Can anyone confirm for me that tethering is working smoothly on here and if so what are you using , ie native tethering or treve mod?

It's important for me for work and as smooth as this sounds it seems like i could make it my daily if tethering is fully functional, I've read a few post about it discussing a zip but not much more info.

Would appreciate it.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Thanks man! It does appear that some of the issues will be felt on ours as well, but only by a few people. As far as I can tell, it is running wonderfully for most people, and its just an unfortunate, random few that are having the problems we are currently reading about here. I can say that some of the issues they are talking about are not at all problems for us, such as the battery for example!

Lets not forget that the International S3, which the article is about, is a vastly different device than our own. The differences in expected bugs can be as different as between our T999 and the Note2.

And from what I have been seeing since the first leak, those having problems are very very low in numbers.

To everyone having issues with SIM card, dropped calls, etc, that have only been common to two or three of you, try flashing the first leak and see if you have different results. If it works better for you, stick with it for now, you won't be missing out on anything in the way of features/functionality.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Did you restore any account or gmail related information from a backup? If so, try clearing all account data, data on gmail, resetup and try again. Also, if gmail has an update available in the store, try it out. (not sure if there is or not)

You might also consider trying without the mod. it is possible these things could have an affect on each other, regardless of how unrelated they seem. (dont forget, the reboot mod was built from MJ4)

Its not really surprising if you think about it. If it were hardware releated, then it would be happening regardless of the radio you are using. So since its only happeniing on the new modems, that just tells us its the modems that may be the problem.

Dont recall anyone reporting this. Did you flash clean? Is it with any music player? Only Googles? Only Samsungs? How about on a 3rd party player? You didnt previously flash the volume mod posted in the first leaks thread did you?
